Right now, there is no import/export. It’s a known useful feature, but the devs have no time to work on it (I’ve been following all the optimization work they’ve been doing on github, I don’t know if they sleep). You’ll have to start over atm, sorry.
Go to Communities at the top, change the filter from “Local” to “All” and search for “Gaming”.
If you’re the first one who wants to register to a community from this server (not the case here) it’s slightly more complex.
Nope. You can subscribe/post/comment on any community on any instance. There is one small seam though: if you’re the first person to subscribe from your instance, you need to put in the full URL of the community (https://lemmy.ml/c/gaming, for example) to pull it into your instance.
After that, everybody on the same instance as you will see it when searching for communities just like it was local.
EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention: make sure the search is set to “All”, not “Communities” when you do this.
Having understood the fediverse on a theoretical level but not ever actually stepping into it, it’s really amazing to see the interconnectedness of it in real time :)
I am definitely a hard-liner when it comes to meat. I do find it harder to be such a hard-liner with other animal products, even though I’m aware of the conditions in dairy factory farms. I do agree with you, I’m just saying it’s difficult.
I guess by that definition I’d be an aspiring vegan :))
The issue isn’t access to raw ingredients, when we have the time my gf and I do cook vegan food (we made a vegan butter “chicken” just a few days ago). The issue is when we go to a restaurant or order takeaway due to work obligations and being super busy, there are no vegan options and normally 1 vegetarian option laden with cheese.
I tried being vegan, but it’s basically impossible in Eastern Europe. I settled for just being a vegetarian trying to reduce my cheese & milk consumption and made my peace with that.
That’s actually not how it works. Images are hosted by the instance the community is on. Other instances embed those images as links in the page. The image is downloaded from the original instance by the browser.
